Mielie Handbags

Inglewood Lavender imports gorgeous handmade bags from a prominent Cape Town designer I discovered during our family's circumnavigation. I purchased my first beloved Mielie bag in a
seaside resort boutique in Simon's Town, SA, and am constantly overwhelmed by the response from strangers whenever I am out in public now that I am back in the US! Women flock to these
eye-catching handbags and always stop to ask me about mine, and to touch it!

A selection of bags is available to purchase below - all custom-made exclusively for Inglewood Lavender Farm. More bags in different designs and colors! If you are in the area, email
info@inglewoodlavender.com for a personal appointment to view all the bags in our current
inventory.

Hand hooked from T-shirt factory remnants, these stunning bags are made by underpriviledged South African township women. The weavers are paid fair, living wages, so when you buy a Mielie
bag, you can be happy and confident you are not encouraging the exploitation of workers that is experienced in far too many places. The women can also weave from home without the worries of
childcare and costs of commuting into the city from the townships. Unlike most inexpensive handbags found in the U.S., these bags are created in an equitable situation that works!

The Cape Town designer, Adri Schutz, does some really cool things for these township women, too! She sponsors anti-domestic abuse and HIV programs, helps out with a community garden and
township preschool. Recently, she was able to provide fire extinguishers to the township houses - house fires are a major concern for the residents! Every bag purchased helps Adri and her
team of weavers in many ways.

A fresh, modern twist to the ancient craft of hooked wool rugs. Bold colors and beautiful patterns with a material that begs to be touched and admired.

Each bag is individually hand made, so no two are exactly the same. They are true works of art!
